Jacqueline Jeanne Victorine Kermina (30 June 1927 – 21 August 1995) was a French tennis player and coach.[1][2]

Born in Paris, Kermina was active as a player in the 1950s and 1960s. She reached the singles third round of the French Championships twice and was a mixed doubles semi-finalist in 1954, with Mervyn Rose.[3]

Kermina had a long association with the France Federation Cup team as a coach, serving three stints as captain. She first led the side in 1969 and 1970, then from 1973 to 1975, before returning for one final campaign in 1977.[4]
